Lion moving at night. Photo taken at half a second shutter speed, ISO 2000, attempting to pan with a lion’s movements in almost total darkness. Not surprisingly its blurry, but I still like the feeling it evokes of the stealthy movement of a lion stalking at night. The title is a play on the names of the two man-eating lions of Tsavo in Kenya, “the Ghost”, and “the Darkness”, which killed and ate over 30 people when the Uganda - Mombasa railway was being built in 1898. There is a film about the man-eating lions of Tsavo, starring Michael Douglas and Val Kilmer, which is worth seeing.
